Comodo Dragon Logging Policies

If you have enabled Instant feature in Comodo Dragon, the browser will automatically start loading the web-page as you finish typing the URL in the address bar and even before you press the Enter button. The search results are further augmented if supported by your default search engine and as you type in the address bar, inline predictions appear instantly.

As you type text in the address bar, the default search engine set in the browser will be requesting results and the results depend on the logging policies of the search engine. If you had set Yahoo as your default search engine, the text entered in the address bar is sent to Yahoo search engine and its logging policies will apply for the search.

If you have opted to disable both the Dragon Instant feature and address bar prediction service, as per the Yahoo search engine's policy, only after you press Enter the searches will be logged. For example, if you type 'course' in the address bar and pause, nothing is displayed. Only after you press the enter button, Yahoo search engine logs 'course' as a search.

If you have opted to enable both the Dragon Instant feature and address bar prediction service, as per the Yahoo search engine's policy, it retrieves predictions even as you type in the address bar of the browser. Select the desired prediction, if it appears, and press the Enter button. The search results for the word is displayed. If you pause for more than three seconds without pressing Enter, the text typed is treated as partial query data by Yahoo search engine. This is stored for up to two weeks in its database and then deleted.

If you have opted to disable Dragon Instant feature and enable address bar prediction service, as per the Yahoo search engine's policy, it retrieves predictions even as you type in the address bar of the browser. To make the prediction service more efficient, Yahoo search engine at random logs two percent of these requests and anonymizes this information within 24 hours.
